Java: How to set GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS on Mac Sierra

Question

I read documentation here and tried to use Terminal export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=/path/to/json/file.json But when I open new terminal and type: echo $GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS it doesn't display the path that I set. The program always says: The Application Default Credentials are not available. Do you have any idea why export command doesn't work ?

Answer 1

I solved using the terminal command

gcloud auth application-default login
